Graduate Management Admission Test is a computer adaptive test conducted
by Graduate Management admission council to test analytical, quantitative,
verbal, reading and writing skills in written English that will be used to get
admission in a graduate management program, such as an MBA in the
various universities across the world which accepts GMAT score.

The Quantitative section measures your ability to analyze data and draw

conclusions using reasoning skills. The mathematics needed to understand
and solve the questions in this section of the GMAT exam is no greater than
what is generally taught in secondary school classes.

Structure of the GMAT Quantitative section
On the GMAT, one section will be a 75-minute Quantitative section, and on
this section, you will see 37 questions. As with all questions on the GMAT,
once you answer a question, you can’t go back to it, because both the
Quantitative and Verbal sections are Computer Adaptive: you will get harder
or easier questions, depending on whether your previous answers were right
or wrong.


There are two math question types on Quantitative section. The first type,
Problem Solving (PS), is just the same old five-answer multiple choice format
you have seen on every standardized test since before puberty. This
question type needs no special explanation. The other type, though, Data
Sufficiency (DS) — this is a beast unique to the GMAT math section. This
question type has unique rules, so it necessarily demands unique strategies.

Here I am providing you some sample question of this Section:
